SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill helps you avoid inconsistent, poorly designed API endpoints that are hard to use, maintain, and scale, by guiding you to implement robust and RESTful backend APIs.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • RESTful Design: Design and implement API endpoints following REST principles with clear resource-based URLs and appropriate HTTP methods.
  • Endpoint Management: Handle API requests/responses, define URL patterns, and configure HTTP status codes efficiently.
  • Use Case: Create a new FastAPI endpoint for managing Product resources, including GET (list/detail), POST, PUT, and DELETE operations, ensuring proper HTTP status codes.

Quick Start

Using the Backend API skill, create a new FastAPI endpoint /users/{user_id} that handles GET requests to retrieve user details and DELETE requests to remove a user.
